If a friend tries to force you to do something you don’t want to: “I appreciate the fact that you want to educate me on that but I was born with the right to choose for myself. Don’t be offended if I make my own choices…”

If you see someone wearing a funny hat: “That’s not something I would wear, but I won’t stop respecting you for that…”
